00:00Listen, I just want to know, what's the worst day you've had so far?
00:02Because there must be a lot to choose from.
00:04Are you better not say, lose with me?
00:07There's been plenty of chances.
00:10I'll tell you the very worst, and it was...
00:13Actually, it was the day of the election, and it nearly broke my heart
00:17because we had 10 o'clock on the day of the election.
00:20We had the exit poll, which comes about a minute afterwards,
00:23and it said Labour's got a landslide victory.
00:25I was with my team and my family.
00:27I jumped up and punched the air, as I would if Arsenal had just scored
00:31a fantastic goal, and my little girl, then 13, burst into tears
00:35and was inconsolable, and that ripped through me.
00:40I had these two emotions totally through my body.
00:45I think that's what people would have known.
